How to Draw the Model of the Jack-o-Lantern by C4D

Leave a comment

Halloween is coming! The pumpkin is an iconic symbol of Halloween. Pumpkins are orange, so orange has also become a traditional Halloween color. Carving jack-o-lanterns from pumpkins is also a Halloween tradition that also dates back to Ireland. Legend has it that a man named Jack was so miserly that he couldn’t enter heaven after death, and because he made fun of the devil he couldn’t enter hell, so he could only wander around with a lantern until Judgment Day. Thus, Jack and the jack-o-lantern became symbols of the cursed wandering spirit. In order to scare away these ghosts on Halloween, turnips, beets or potatoes are carved into scary faces to represent Jack with a lantern, which is the origin of the Jack-o’-lantern. When the Irish moved to the United States, they began to carve with pumpkins, which are more abundant than turnips in the American fall. Now, if people hang jack-o-lanterns in the windows on Halloween night, it means that those in Halloween costumes can knock on the door for candy.

Today we are going to share how to use C4D to draw the model of the jack-o-lantern.
1. First, we build a sphere and change the sphere into 12 segments. 
2. Turn the sphere into an editable object and press the shortcut key C. Change to face mode and select the top face. 


3. Use internal extrusion, shortcut key I, to extrude the empty hole above. 
4. Select all the faces (CTRL+A), and then use Extrude (D) to extrude a face. Remember to tick Create cap. 

5. We select an edge every other.
6. Then we use the chamfer function (M, S) to chamfer the corner and turn off the subdivision. 
7. We select another edge that was not selected before. 
8. Repeat step 6. 


9. We add a subdivision surface to the sphere. If you think the pumpkin is not flat enough, you can use T to shrink it inward. 
10. We use two cubes as the eyes of the pumpkin, which can be switched to other views. 
11. We turn the two cubes into editable objects, switch to point mode, select these points, and pull down. 
12. Using the spline brush tool, draw the pumpkin’s mouth. 


13. Extrude the splines and align them with the eyes.
14. Turn the mouth into an editable object and merge it together.
15. Merge the two eyes and mouth together.
16. Then use the Boolean tool to insert the eyes and mouth into the previous pumpkin.  That’s it!

How to Draw Cartoon Pencils by AI

Leave a comment

Pencils, as our earliest writing tools, can be erased at any time and are easy to carry. When I first went to school, I always put several spares in the pencil case, in case the exam questions could not be solved, I broke the pencils when I was angry.
Today, what we are going to share is how to draw cartoon pencils by AI. It’s so easy that even beginners can master it easily.
1. First, we use the rectangle tool to draw a rectangle and fill it with the color we like. 
2. Using the Polygon Tool, draw a triangle to match the previous rectangle. 
3. Using the rectangle tool, draw a rectangle and place it under the pen holder. 
4. Then use the rectangle tool to draw the eraser of the pencil. 
5. Select the rectangle tool of the eraser, use the direct selection tool (shortcut key A), select two anchor points, and pull to make them rounded. 
6. Using the rectangle tool, draw a rectangle in the middle of the pen as the pencil lines. 
7. Copy the triangle of the pen tip in place and fill it with different colors. 
8. Select the tip of the pen and use the eraser tool to erase an arc. 
9. Delete unnecessary parts. 
10. Select the part except the tip of the pen. 
11. Add a stroke of a certain color and thickness.  That’s it! Have fun!

Do you know the origin of the pencil’s name? Pencils originated in ancient Rome more than 2,000 years ago. At that time, the shape of pencils was very simple: a lead rod was sandwiched in a metal sleeve, which was named pencil as the name suggests. With the advancement of science and technology, the pencil also began its evolutionary history. In 1564, someone in Barrodale discovered graphite, a black mineral, and graphite can leave traces on paper, which is darker than the traces of lead. People call graphite “black lead”, but it is easy to be hacked. In 1662, the first pencil factory in the world was built in Nuremberg, Germany, the Shidelou Pencil Factory. In 1761, German Farber mixed graphite powder with rosin, sulfur, etc. to make strips, with high toughness and suitable hardness, easy to write and not easy to get dirty hands, which made pencil manufacturing technology take a big step forward. At the end of the 18th century, the pencil industry was initially monopolized by Britain and Germany. Later, France also found graphite mines in its own country. However, due to the small output, the graphite was mixed with clay for firing, and economical pencils were made. core. So that’s why you don’t get lead poisoning when you get stabbed with your own pencil, because pencils don’t contain lead, they’re just graphite and clay. But it’s too bad if you stab someone with a pencil.

Tutorial for Drawing Cartoon Oranges with AI

Leave a comment

Who doesn’t love oranges? They are both beautiful and delicious, today we will use AI to draw cartoon oranges.
1. First, we use the ellipse tool to draw a perfect circle and fill in the color you like. 
2. After duplicating a perfect circle, make it smaller inward and hold down the SHIFT+ALT keys. 

3. Use the same method again and draw a white circle inside.


4. Select the circle in the middle, and then use the eraser tool to erase the edge of the orange. 
5. Select the outermost circle and divide it in two with the Knife Tool, remember to hold down the SHIFT+ALT keys. 
6. Fill half of it with other colors you like. 
7. Adjust the distance between each circle again. That’s it.

Common sense of life:

Do you know? Oranges are rich in vitamin C and P, which can increase the body’s resistance, increase the elasticity of capillaries, and reduce blood cholesterol. People with hyperlipidemia, high blood pressure and arteriosclerosis often eat oranges. The cellulose and pectin substances contained in oranges can promote intestinal peristalsis, which is conducive to clearing the bowels and expelling harmful substances in the body. Orange peel is sweet, bitter and warm in taste, and its effect on relieving cough and phlegm is better than that of tangerine peel. Oranges have almost become synonymous with vitamin C.
In fact, it is rich in vitamin C, which can enhance the body’s resistance and expel fat-soluble harmful substances from the body. It is a healthy antioxidant in line with its name. Orange peel is also called yellow peel. In addition to the ingredients in the pulp, it contains more carotene, which can be used as a stomachic agent and an aromatic flavoring agent. Orange peel also contains a certain amount of orange peel oil, which is effective against chronic bronchitis.
For women, eating more oranges has an unexpected benefit, which is to reduce the incidence of gallstones. According to a survey in the United States, 2/3 of the 19 million patients with cholecystitis in the United States are women. Women are prone to gallstones because estrogen causes cholesterol to accumulate in bile, which leads to high cholesterol concentration and stone formation. Oranges can play a significant role in reducing the occurrence of gallstones.

Do you know how to choose the right coffee cup?
During the cleaning process of the coffee cup, it is strictly forbidden to use a hard brush to scrub, and the use of strong acid and strong alkali cleaners should also be avoided to avoid scratches and damage to the surface of the coffee cup. When choosing a coffee cup, you can choose the right coffee cup for different occasions according to your personal preference, the type of coffee and the drinking method. Due to the change of personal preferences and places, here are several choices for the types and drinking methods of coffee. Small coffee cups under 100ml – mostly used to hold strong Italian-style coffee or single-origin coffee, such as Italian espresso with only about 50ml. Although it is almost emptied, the coffee has a lingering fragrance after drinking it. The lingering mellow aftertaste and the temperature that seems to be forever warm can warm your heart the most.
